Little Peanut (4 years old) wonders what I'm doing, so I explain customer discovery to her as "people want to make something, so I'm helping them see if anyone will buy it before they make it."

Canada’s response to U.S. tariffs. Justin Trudeau's best speech.

Canada will place 25% tariffs on $155 billion in US imports in retaliation for Trump tariffs. That is an addition to a nationwide boycott on all US products across Canada. #cdnpoli #tariffwar

USAID is a criminal organization,” Mr. Musk wrote on Sunday in a social media post that many aid workers saw as confirmation the agency would soon be absorbed into the State Department and that some viewed as a potential threat to their personal safety. “Time for it to die.”
THIS HAS TO STOP.

enough handwringing now. we know what works. stop getting distracted, stay focused - singularly - on calling out LOUDLY and often and repeatedly the FACTUAL ILLEGALITIES and unconstitutional actions. aside from that, drop the subject.

we arent going to get anywhere complaining, doomsdaying, handwringing, caterwauling, or fear mongering. Community and collaboration is the antidote to fascism 🌱https://lavender-zorana-89.tiiny.site/ share it far and wide, information is power, sharing is democracy

Meta is renewing its threats against employees, telling them today that they will hunt for leakers and tolerate zero leaks.

Want to know how that is going? Three Meta employees who I’ve never spoken to before just cold messaged/emailed me offering me to be sources.

This is a reminder that no one can convince Trump voters to no longer support Trump, better than Trump can.

Gosh, I remember when we had an actual president instead of a loudmouth bully who won't take responsibility for his actions.
